UFC 310 marked the conclusion of final PPV for the MMA giant in 2024. The final PPV card of the year didn’t end without stirring the pot a little. During the octagon interview, Shavkat Rakhmonov called for face-off with Belal Muhammad. This led to a strange mishap with the security not recognizing the champion. Reacting to the bizarre situation, former champion Kamaru Usman poked fun at Muhammad.

Strangely enough, ‘Bully B’ seems to always finds himself in odd situations that puts him under bad light. Rare Daniel Cormier botch at UFC 304 dulled the mixed martial artist’s crowning moment as champion igniting more memes. Now, after UFC 310’s strange encounter with security personnel, Kamaru Usman shared his take on the whole situation.

What are we doing here? Even the security working the event don’t know you are the champion. (laughs) Oh my god….I remember when I saw yo, Joe Rogan had to vouch for you to get you come through security. Did you hear what Joe Rogan said? Oh, he is the champ. Let him in?

Apart from the bizarre torn short incident with Ian Garry, this was yet another first of its kind mishap in UFC history. It took Joe Rogan’s intervention to diffuse the situation. Muhammad is nursing a toe injury, which prevented him from competing at UFC 310. It was not just Usman, who offered his reaction to the incident, Irish star Conor McGregor also chimed in as well.

Bully B’s beef with Usman began a couple months back, following an unreleased podcast interview. The welterweight champion claimed to verbally breaking Usman, which the ‘Nigerian Nightmare’ denied. Ever since, the duo haven’t seen eye-to-eye, giving birth to this new feud. Responding back to Usman, Muhammad ensured to bring up the past.

The duo haven’t been able to get on the same page ever since the alleged podcast incident occurred. Reports suggests that things got a bit out of hand, as the duo almost got into a physical altercation after heated debate. Now, taking note of Usman’s recent comments, ‘Bully B’ has offered his reaction.

Muhammad poked at Usman’s podcast and how he fell off in the recent times. Moreover, the champion also reminded him of the alleged podcast fight and what really occurred. Muhammad continues to make claim of verbally destroying the former champion, something that caused him to not release the episode.

The Nigerian Nightmare is currently facing tough times in his career after facing 3 consecutive losses. Leon Edwards put Usman out of the title picture in March 2023. However, with Edwards out of the title picture, Usman can still surge a return to welterweight title contention. This leaves the door open for Muhammad to finally settle the score with the former champion.
